Looks good to me....we should have this as an SSV spec in Aus.
Cheers, Pickles.

Ok....

So all the noise about Holden having LS3 was the export version only... SS

The SSV shall retain the LXX and this gap I believe should remain.

If it were to have the LS3 this would trump HSV and goes back to Graeme's comments a while back along with some others quoting that engine fitment.

And they're gold too...

You should set up a trading post here for Americans wanted Holden badges swapping with Australians wanting Chev badges.

That's right, they didn't think they'd sell enough to justify the effort see below link, might change if the SS is popular.

Have a look at the interior photo in the below story, it seems the Chev has a different seat heater buttons compared with our Calais V. On ours there was 1 button under each centre vent, the Chev has 2.

Yep it appears to be a separate button for chilled and heated seats.

Here are all the press kit photos.

It also appears that the Chev SS gets better seats, more HSV like IMO

[axemurderer101]

are those some kind of heater vents in the top of the seats?
seeing as they have an extra switch next to the heated seats switch on the dash

I think they are more like the Recaro race seats with the race harness holes, although most likely cosmetic.

So the Americans will get a cheap as chips Chev SS with all the fruit that our HSV gets, and they are importing it from us.
Holden, you suck!

Yet some still sound surprised....

Some nice Aluminium shifters would have finished it off a little nicer!
